FAQs

Is it really 90% funded?

Yes -  this programme is 90% funded by the UK Government through the Skills Bootcamp initiative, with support from Hull City Council. That means eligible Hull-based businesses only contribute £208.68 per employee for a nationally recognised Level 5 Leadership & Management qualification - a course that would typically cost thousands. There are no hidden fees. Just a high-impact training opportunity for the people in your business who are ready to step up and lead.

Will this help us grow the business?

Yes - this programme is designed to equip emerging leaders and managers in your business with the confidence, tools, and strategies to lead more effectively, manage teams with clarity, and contribute to business growth from the inside out. Whether it’s improving performance, strengthening leadership, or reducing dependency on senior staff, this training helps unlock your team's full potential.

What if our team is not tech savvy?

No problem. This course is built for the business world with easy-to-follow lessons and step-by-step guidance.

How flexible is the course?

It’s a hybrid programme designed for busy professionals. You’ll attend two in-person workshops in Hull (at the start and end), with all other sessions delivered online in flexible AM or PM slots—so you can still run your business while you learn.

Who teaches the course?

The programme is delivered by two expert trainers—both experienced in leadership and management and teacher-qualified professionals. They bring real-world insight into every session, so you’re learning from the experts.

Will we receive support after the course ends?

Yes! Particuants are invited to join a Circle community of students and alumni for ongoing networking and support. Plus, you'll have access to resources and templates to continue growth.

How much time do we need to commit to this Programme?

This is a hands-on programme designed for serious learners. Expect to dedicate [6-8 hours per week, for 8 weeks], including live sessions, practical work, and implementation time.

Is this just theory, or will we get hands-on experience?

This is not a passive learning course. You’ll actively work on developing your leadership and management skills, implementing what you learn with guidance from experts.

Do I need to have a business to join?

No - this programme is specifically designed for individuals who are employed by SMEs based in Hull. You don’t need to run your own business. It’s ideal for team members, new managers, or emerging leaders who are stepping up and want to build the skills, mindset, and confidence to lead effectively.

What results can I expect from this programme?

Participants walk away with a clear leadership strategy, practical tools you can use immediately, and the confidence to lead with impact. Participants often report improved communication, better decision-making, and feeling more equipped to step into senior responsibility. This programme is designed to strengthen your leadership capabilities and help you grow with purpose inside your organisation.

Who is this NOT for?

This programme is not for people who aren’t ready to take action. If you / your team is looking for a passive course or aren’t prepared to apply what you learn to your business, this isn’t the right fit.
